THE MARY L. TURNER w« due to leave 
Port in eight hours, when Matty Grey 
signed on as an oiler. There were other 
new faces, but most of them were pretty much 
the usual sort. . 

Only Matty Grey was different Tall and 
well built, he did his first four hour watch and 
came on deck just after sun up. The weather 
was clear and the Mary L. wa» making good 

t,r Matty made himself comfortabl*, sat looking 
out over the. choppy sea. His eyes were blue 
and there was something in them you felt rather 
than saw. For that matter you jot the same 
feeling from everything he did. Or rather the 
way he did it. Maybe you'd caU him moody. 
He certainly didn't talk much. 

"First trip out?" Pete Burdell questioned. 
"Hardly." Matty Grey didn't took around. 
"I've been to sea before." 
"Like it?" 
"It's alright." 

That was all. On watch or off, *t mess or on 
deck, he never had anything to «ay. He took 
orders and never asked question* By the time 
we were two days gone, everyone knew every- 
body's business except Matty Grej. 

I got along well with the other fuys. I made 
it a habit to mind my own affair* end maybe it 
was because of this that Matty son of chummed 
with me. 



WE STOPPED at Aruba ano it was there 
that Matty opened up oni evening and 
told me what everyone else had been 
dying to find out. It was a swett night/ warm 
and soft and the lights of Aruba were like jewels 
against purple plush. The faint '•ash of waves 
against the side of the ship, the wind in the 
booms and rigging was the only eound. Matty 
eased up and leaned on the railing. 

"Guess most of the crew ha» tone ashore, 
he said, looking away toward th* shore lights. 
''Boy, they'll sure go to town tonifcht." 

"It's always the same," I answered. "Money 



doesn't mean much to most of 'em. Maybe a 
few with wives and kids back in the states. 

I waited, feeling something about the guy that 
was new. He seemed restless as if something 

worried him. , 

Finally it came. He said, "I suppose youve 
got a wife and kids home, Steve. You seem 

that sort to me." 

I had to chuckle. "Not yet I haven L I need 
six months more before I can take my exams for 
a third assistant. If I pass then I'll think about 

the rest" . . , 

"I hope you make it." His tone of voice told 
me he meant it. I waited and by and by he 
said, "I guess it means a good deal to you. I— 
worked for something once. But I didnt sue 
ceed." 

His voice sharpened then, getting hard and 
stern and I knew he was getting ready to open 
up, and could feel the tension in his voice «nd 
knew whatever it was, it had meant everything 
to him. He'd had success almost in his hands 
and then . . . something had happened. 

I was right. "I'd been in training almost since 
I was a kid," Matty Grey told me that night. 
"In athletics. Fancy high-dives. That sort of 
thing." He spoke as if it didn't matter much 
anymore, but deep inside I knew it did, knew 
it meant everything to him even now. I had 
my chance," he went on finally. "It was the 
real thing. World-wide championship meet. 
The day before ... I misjudged. Even now I 
don't know what happened. But I hit wrong 
and injured my back." 

His voice dwindled into nothing and there 
was just the wind in the cargo booms, and the 
water against the side of the ship. 

I didn't know what sort of answer to give 
him. "Tough," I managed to say. "When you've 
been after a thing all your life — " 

"Yes, tough," he admitted. "I was in bed with 
a back injury for six months and then the medi- 
cos told me no more swimming. My back 
wouldn't stand the strain. So that— was that!" 



YftLOWJACKn ^dbMra 



WE LEFT Aruba twenty-four hours later 
and life got back to normal once more, 
and after a little while I began to forget 
what Matty Grey had told me. We talked more 
together. Once he'd gotten that off his chest he 
seemed to feel better. 

I'd forgotten it until we were off the coast of 
South America and the storm caught us. We 
didn't expect it to be as bad as it was. We didn't 
have time to put into any port, because there 
wasn't one close enough. So the deck hands 
battoned everything down tight and nobody got 
-much sleep. 

Three hours later the storm opened up. The 
wind was close to a hundred miles an hour and 
the ocean was a solid mass of mountains. Every- 
time they hit it was almost like being hit by a 
torpedo. 

Six hours later the rudder was smashed. 

We weren't far off the coast, but it was noth- 
ing but wilderness and reefs. Three hours later 
we went aground with a crash that seemed to 
have broken the Mary L. Turner right in half. 

Up on deck the gale had done plenty of dam- 
age. Part of the wheel house was gone. The 
booms were smashed and had ripped away part 
of the deck. Shortly after we went aground, 
number 4 hold began to take water. 



GETTING the crew into life boats would 
have been mass suicide. The radioman 
reported the nearest help a good eight 
hours away. 

We could see the coast line clearly, in spite 
of the terrific drive of rain. If there had been 
anyone on shore to make a line fast somewhere, 
we could have gotten the crew off. But it looked 
wild and desolate. 

Maybe that was why Chris Baker decided to 
take a chance on reaching shore with a line. It 
took a lot of nerve, but it takes a lot of nerve to 
die, too, and I guess Chris figured our chances 
were pretty slim either way. 

He had the line tied around his middle and 
we watched him go in. But he never made it, 
although Chris was a good swimmer. When 
they pulled him back, his shoulders and one 
side were badly busted up. 

The thing had me sort of groggy. I couldn't 
think straight and didn't understand at first, 
when Matty Grey told me he was going ashore 
with a line. We'd gone below for coffee. 

"You're nuts!" I told him. "You saw Chris—" 

"That was Chris." Matty's voice was steady 
and calm. There was something in it I'd heard 
that night off Aruba. He said, "I'm going." 



Maybe the storm wasn't quite so bad. Maybe 
it was wishful thinking. The wind just about 
tore you off your feet,, and the spray was like 
glass. Matty sure looked good stripped but he 
seemed to be waiting, as if unable to make up 
his mind. 

I knew what was going on inside his head. He 
was thinking of the medicos telling him his back 
wouldn't stand any strain. He was thinking that 
if he didn't make it, the ship would break up any 
time almost and everyone would be lost. He was 
thinking of a lot of things. . . . 



A COMBER hit the ocean-side of the Mary 
L. Turner and she shuddered from stern 
to bow. 

A second later Matty Grey was gone. 

It was dangerous to stand at the side, but I 
hung on and watched Matty. For a couple of 
minutes it seemed as if he'd never make it, but 
would be hurled back against the side of the 
ship and killed. Then he was moving away. 
It seemed incredibly slow as he inched away 
from the ship. 

Later I couldn't see him. The spray and the 
wind had the eyes cut almost out of my head. 
The wind screamed in my ears. Then I saw 
Matty once more. He was a good half way to 
shore. I saw his body in the froth of a combing 
breaker. Chris hadn't gone so far. . . . 

Matty Grey made it to shore and got the line 
secured. We got the entire crew on shore. No 
one had been hurt or lost except Chris Baker, 
and he'd pull through okay. 



S" OMETIME after dark that night the Mary 
L. Turner broke up, and we never saw her 
again. It was another twelve hours before 
a cargo job showed up to take us on board, but 
by then the storm had blown out. 

We were headed for port when I talked to 
Matty Grey again. He had changed overnight. 
His face was different, more friendly, and he 
kidded with the other guys. 

'The doctors aren't always right," he told me 
later. "I'm going back and see what happens. 
That pull the other day pretty much convinced 
me I'm okay." 

"You are," I told him humbly, feeling empty 
inside at the thought of seeing him go. "You 
proved that in a good many ways. And if you 
don't believe me, ask any of the other guys. 
They'll say — you're tops!"
